This
lively book details the entry of Kwan Yin, the great goddess of compassion,
into the lives of American women.
Nine
beautiful photographs of Kwan Yin images are featured. Stories from Asian-American
and European-American women evoke their contact with and veneration of
this great compassionate goddess. A section of practices—chants, meditations,
songs—will connect you strongly to Kwan Yin's saving energy.
(Boston:
Beacon Press, 1999. paperback, $13)

“I’m
so glad to have Discovering Kwan Yin, Buddhist Goddess of Compassion
not only because of the wonderful subject, but because of my respect for
Sandy Boucher’s work in Buddhism. This book gives a form of knowledge
we deeply need in these times.”
-- Susan Griffin, author of What Her Body Thought
“Sandy
Boucher’s work invites me to bow in thanksgiving to her and to Kwan Yin.
This study in compassion, written with compassion, adds to the
feminist store of religious knowledge. Its beauty and simplicity, its
practicality and heartfelt tone bring the power of the Bodhisattva home.”
-- Mary E. Hunt, Ph.D. WATER (Women's Alliance for Theology, Ethics, and
Ritual)
